About this episode

Welcome back to Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu. In part two of this dynamic conversation, Tom Bilyeu sits down with entrepreneur and author Daniel Priestley to unpack the hidden forces shaping today's economic landscape. Together, they dig deep into models of wealth redistribution, the power—and peril—of technological disruption, and why some countries like those in the Nordics seem to make social safety nets work, while others struggle.

Daniel Priestley pulls back the curtain on what really drives inequality in the modern era, from government competence to the impact of repeated technological revolutions. The discussion tackles hot topics like universal basic income, the role of sovereign wealth funds, and what future generations can expect as artificial intelligence reaches an inflection point. Whether you’re curious about the fate of the middle class, the future of property ownership, or how to stay ahead in a shifting economy, this conversation is packed with actionable insights and bold predictions. Buckle up for a riveting exploration of economics, technology, and the very rules that will define our future.

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers about how DevFound's AI matching, resumes, and referrals work.

DevFound's AI Copilot ingests your profile, goals, and live job data to deliver curated matches in seconds. Every match includes a resume variant, suggested referrals, and interview prep so you can act immediately. The more feedback you provide, the sharper the Copilot becomes.

AI-led job searches shrink the hours spent sifting through boards and formatting resumes. DevFound pairs automation with your personal outreach, so you reserve energy for interviews and negotiation. Traditional networking still matters, but AI gives you a lift before you even send a message.

Modern AI roles expect comfort with production-grade code, data fluency, and practical ML tooling. The strongest candidates pair deep technical chops with storytelling—translating model impact to product, GTM, and exec partners. Continuous learning keeps you ahead as stacks evolve.

DevFound rewards active seekers. Keep your profile fresh, respond to match quality prompts, and enable alerts so you never miss a role. The AI prioritizes companies and teams that align with your feedback, accelerating both introductions and interview invites.

High-density tech hubs continue to host the deepest AI talent pools, yet distributed teams are catching up fast. Use DevFound filters to hone in on onsite, hybrid, or fully remote roles and watch openings expand across time zones.

DevFound aggregates thousands of remote AI openings and flags the nuances—core hours, async culture, and visa needs—up front. The Copilot also recommends how to position your distributed work experience so hiring managers know you can thrive on a remote team.
